CYBERSPACE — xHamster has announced it is looking to audition love dolls for the first exclusive xHamster contract star.
“We’ve always been at the forefront of sextech,” said an xHamster rep. “In 2007, we were a pioneer among the early tube sites, and in the years since have led at site security, consumer privacy, sexual education, VR and most recently artificial intelligence.
“Over the past year, we’ve built an AI database that we hope will help us not only identify adult performers, but has provided the raw data to help us develop the next generation of adult entertainment — the first AI adult star,” the representative added.
“We’ve been encouraged by the incredible work being done by those inside and outside of our industry, professional and amateur, in regard to love dolls,” the representative said. “We believe there is tremendous potential, not only as a consumer product, but as a central part of adult film production.”
According to xHamster, the advantages from a production standpoint are many.
"Not only would an AI performer avoid some of the complicated regulations of workplace health and safety and consent, but the cost could be amortized over perhaps hundreds of shoots,” the spokesperson said. “Traditional costs, including fees, testing, travel and lodging would be close to zero.
“We know from building our own proprietary love doll in 2017, xHamsterina, that the physical adaptability would allow for countless variations in appearance, with little or no lost set up time,” the representative said. “However, our own doll is not robotically equipped, and we believe that it is better to partner with someone already invested in the field.
“A love doll might not yet be able to take the place of most performers, at least in the historic adult film format,” the representative said, “However, we do believe that, with robotic technology and our own developments in AI, that we could begin to supplement production, beginning with certain fetishes and shorter clips.
xHamster said it intends to build a doll that can, in time, respond to stimuli and recognize the needs of its scene mate performer — as well, ideally, any consumers who would purchase.
“We’re looking to begin production in early summer, following a series of ‘auditions’ and test shoots in Los Angeles with various robot love dolls will be paired with bio-male and female talent in April,” the representative said.
xHamster will be represented at the 2018 XBIZ Show.
“We’re interested in meeting with manufacturers about a possible partnership,” the representative said. “We are one of the 100 most-visited sites in the world, with over 40 million visitors every day. We are prepared to offer not only our technology, but funding.”
